    Replacing long leg with short leg baseplates?

    Want to change some aph-2 to short leg to use in a wider variety of guitars. Duncan specs 49mm pole spacing; only nickel silver replacement plates I can find are 49.2mm. Anyone tried this and know if it will work? Thanks

    Are these same wind but different magnets?

    Jazz bridge = aph-1 bridge with A5? Aph-1 neck = jazz neck with A2?

    Wire type in slash 2.0?

    Still polysol like the aph1/2, or something else?

    Magnet swaps: anyone ever tried....

    Double thick ceramic in a custom or A2 in a screamin demon? Looking for actual experiences not guesses.

    Anyone know for sure?

    Anyone ever sub A5 into a Saturday Night Special bridge?

    Curious if anyone has done that and what the results were. With that much PE on the coils, seems like A5 would be a good choice.

    1/2" hex vs 1/2" filister: anyone compared directly?

    Not interested In theory. Anyone actually compared the two in the same pickup? Not talking about normal length filisters, just the short ones vs the short hex poles.

    Couple magnet swapping notes, Slash, Black Dog

    Slash with UOA5: Wow, Very nice, I like it, better than A2 which left me a bit flat. I like this better than the WLH. Articulate but not bright, not thin, well rounded. I generally find the WLH a bit spikey, this is not, but it's not dark or dull either. Black dog: With the stock RCA5 I...

    Ceramic JB?

    Tried JB with no tone control and it was.......almost. Anyone tried ceramic in it? What do you find? Looking to keep the squawky mids but add articulation in the pick attack.

    Alnico 8 in Pearly Gates Bridge?

    Anyone tried it? I find the stock sound piercing, was thinking that might help. I like PAFs and don't mind bright, but stock PG was a bit much for me.

    Tell me about the pegasus.

    How does it differ from a Becker, which has similar specs? Also, I play what most of you would call dirty clean to low gain, so how it does for high gain or detuned metal isn't on my radar, though that's all I see in reviews and clips nowadays.

    Is there a pickup that does this?

    Take an original parallel axis trembucker tone, keep the mids, but reduce the bass a middling amount and increase the high end articulation? Doesn't have to be a duncan. In fact it's probably not as I'm familiar with the line and can't think of one (generally as you drop bass/increase treble...

    Roughcast UOA5 vs. Roughcast A5?

    How much of a difference? Enough to even bother?
